We will be working closely with Speedway in the coming months as they get more information about how the merger will impact their overall business operations, as well as our partnership, and will share as soon as more information is available. Clark Sweat and Speedway board member, Glenn Plumby, have already been in contact regarding the merger.

For now, Speedway has shared that we should continue to build and execute fundraising plans, engage and support Speedway locations with business as usual. As more information becomes available we will share with you and you program directors via Essentials.
